Petrol Station
BP Petrol Station on Kingston Road, by its junction with Park Rise. This junction was originally the site of a pond, Bradmere Pond, which was filled in in 1906. Old maps show the centre of the pond to have been at this junction, with Kingston Road (in the foreground) a relatively narrow track, and it seems that its removal was needed to allow the road to be widened. Originally only the top end of Park Rise was developed, and this site was initially undeveloped. A building is shown on the 1939 1:2,500 map, with later editions marking it (with enlargement) as a garage. Hill Rise Court, in the left background, was a 2002 subsequent redevelopment of the corner site.

Park Rise
Road originally developed in 1906, following the filling in of a pond, Bradmere Pond. Old maps show the centre of the pond to have been at this junction, with Kingston Road (in the foreground) a relatively narrow track, and it seems that its removal was needed to allow the road to be widened. Originally only the top end of Park Rise was developed, with the rest following in the mid 20th Century. Hill Rise Court, on the left, was a 2002 subsequent redevelopment of the corner site.
